High Performance Battery

View page
US Patent:
6444364, Sep 3, 2002
Filed:
May 2, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/563185
Inventors:
Peter Harris - Stow MA
David Adamson - Ashland MA
Douglas Woodnorth - Needham MA
Barbara Brys - Bedford MA
Martin Howard - Wilton CT
Assignee:
The Gillette Company - Boston MA
International Classification:
H01M 450
US Classification:
429224, 429165, 429131, 429167
Abstract:
A battery, such as an alkaline battery, that can provide a high energy output at a high rate and that has a relatively high ratio of manganese dioxide to cathode volume is disclosed. The battery can provide high energy output at a high rate when the battery is intermittently subjected to a high energy load.

Alkaline Cell With Improved Casing

US Patent:
6555266, Apr 29, 2003
Filed:
Jun 29, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/106625
Inventors:
Douglas J. Woodnorth - Needham MA
Barbara Brys - Bedford MA
Assignee:
The Gillette Company - Boston MA
International Classification:
H01M 202
US Classification:
429164, 429168, 429229, 429224, 429206
Abstract:
The invention relates to electrochemical cells having a metal current collector, particularly zinc/MnO primary alkaline cells wherein the cathode metal current collector is the cells steel casing. The present invention is directed to a coating on the current collector, such as the inside surface of the steel casing of an alkaline cell, to improve the cells performance, particularly when it is used for high power applications. In accordance with the invention the current collector or inside surface of the steel casing for the cell, is preferably preplated with nickel, then plated with a layer of cobalt or cobalt alloy, and subsequently coated with a layer of carbon over the cobalt layer. The carbon may be applied from a carbon/solvent coating mixture which is dried to evaporate the solvent carrier. The service life of the cell is improved, particularly during high power applications.

Battery Cathode

US Patent:
6833217, Dec 21, 2004
Filed:
May 22, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/042750
Inventors:
Douglas J. Woodnorth - Needham MA
Peter B. Harris - Stow MA
Gregory A. Fariss - Poughkeepsie NY
Barbara Brys - Bedford MA
Assignee:
Duracell Inc. - Bethel CT
International Classification:
H01M 608
US Classification:
429229, 429224, 429206, 429165
Abstract:
A cathode that includes manganese dioxide and relatively small particles of nonsynthetic, nonexpanded graphite is disclosed. The graphite particles can have an average particle size of less than 20 microns. The cathode can be used in an electrochemical cell, such as a battery.

Alkaline Cell With Improved Anode

View page
US Patent:
6251539, Jun 26, 2001
Filed:
Jun 14, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/332964
Inventors:
Barbara Brys - Bedford MA
Peter B. Harris - Stow MA
Assignee:
The Gillette Company - Boston MA
International Classification:
H01M 442
H01M 458
H01M 604
H01M 1026
H01M 450
US Classification:
429229
Abstract:
The performance of alkaline cells comprising a zinc anode and manganese dioxide cathode can be improved, especially in high power application, by the addition of electrically conductive powders such as tin, copper, silver, magnesium, indium or bismuth to the anode mixture. The conductive powders are in physical mixture with the zinc particles. A preferred electrically conductive powder is tin powder. The alkaline cell to which the conductive powders are added preferably contain no added mercury and preferably are also essentially free of lead.

View page
US Patent:
20160102218, Apr 14, 2016
Filed:
Oct 13, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/881913
Inventors:
- Boston MA, US
Barbara E. Brys - Bedford MA, US
International Classification:
C09D 11/38
C09D 11/322
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are aqueous inkjet ink compositions and coating compositions comprising: at least one pigment; at least one polymer; and at least one water-soluble compound having a hydroxyl number of at least 40, wherein the at least one water-soluble compound is selected from ethoxylated C-Cpolyols, C-Cpolyols having three or more hydroxyl groups, and polyether polyols, and wherein the at least one water-soluble compound is present in an amount ranging from 1% to by 60% weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, wherein the composition comprises a total amount of water-soluble organic components ranging from 25% to 60% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
